Rwanda-backed fighters controlled almost all of the DR Congo city of Goma on January 29, 2025 where residents were re-emerging after days of deadly fighting and Angola urged leaders of both countries to urgently hold peace talks. After intense fighting that saw the M23 armed group and Rwandan troops seize the city's airport and key sites, calm returned to the mineral trading hub. (Photo by AFP)
